anyone know of a candy store in L.A. that makes or sells classic New Orleans style pralines?

I think Little John's in The Original Farmers Market makes it. They have the best English Toffee, that they make almost daily. I'd give them a call.

I second Littlejohn's. My mother was a praline fanatic. Littlejohn's is a stellar praline.

Think "Best Little Worehouse" and New Year's day at our house . . . (Say "hey" to L for me.)

At the Altadena Farmer's market there's a food stall selling New Orleans food and he was selling them pralines, although not sure if he made it himself.
